SoT will be our default seal SoR for aoe (3 or more targets) SoI may be useful on very high damage fights if your healers are going oom.Personally I doubt we'll be using SoI very often, as we'll be doing more dps as tanks now switching will cost the raid more dps than it did in the past.http://i.wow.joystiq.com/2012/08/09/mis ... -paladins/ is a good basic guid.

I've not seen any solid numbers yet, so don't take it as fact :pI'm guessing Theck will let us know just how much healing we get at the cost of how much dps, when he gets through the small mountain of data he has.Might also depend on raid size, I can imagine I'll be more willing to switch to SoI in my 10 man than a 25 tank, as there will be only 2/3 healers so less random aoe heals for SoI to get lost in.Will have to give it a try at the weekend when I've finished breaking my ui.

Thanks for the numbers.16k HPS that's a lot more than I was thinking it would be, is that including bonus healing to WoG or just the SoI ticks?If I remember right from the streams I watched healers where pushing 60K-100K HPS, even with a high overheal % from SoI it's looking like I might put SoI back on my keybinds.

ok that so closer to the relation I suspected it to be. So it really depends on setup and boss mechanics if SoI is worthwhile. Also if 10 or 25 man makes a difference.

although I had some fun checking my logs from yesterday from the Ultraxion encounter, I used SoI the whole evening to check the numbers for myself.

I'm speaking of healing received, and we only use 1 healer for this encounter so it's easier to compare

SS was on place 1 with 27.4% and 35 ticks with an average of 12766.8, absorbing a total of 447189 damage.SOI on place 2, 21.7% 93 ticks and 3808 avgplaces 3 was my 2piece bonus and place 4 the lifeleech from Souldrinker HM, not a single WoG needed, making a total of 64.4% of my healing received, coming from myself.
